Well it was already really cool to start with. I lapped the processor and the heatsink and coretemp reported like 27c on linpack (even though there's no actual temp sensor for the core, it defaults to the socket temp). Right now it says 16c and it's been running wcg forever

I'm more happy about the power consumption. This board is a 95w max board, so the lower the volts I can run the cpu at the better.

For some reason, when stability testing (I noticed it while running Linx) my voltage changes on it's own. I have it set to 1.275 in the BIOS, and Coretemp will show it at 1.275v when it first loads up... but after running Linx for a while, it starts reading it as 1.325v... CPU-Z does it as well, it reads 1.280v on startup, but it goes to 1.328v after running Linx for a while. What's up?

your mosfets probabply heat up, or your PSU. i saw it many times during crunching, when my average temperature was too high. it also could be just the board overvolting during load. pretty normal tho.

The mosfets should be cooler than they were before. 1.275v is a lot less than 1.325v. When I run it at 1.325v it doesn't jump in coretemp, but when I run it at 1.275v it jumps back up to 1.325v after running OCCT Linpack or LinX. It doesn't do it while running WCG though.

i got a question. for the WCG button on ur sig where do the points that u need come from as in which site? According to my WCG stats im at 100k points but BOINC STATS and other site show me as 14k. Which is the one u guys go by?

There is a factor 7 between these two stats, sadly we have to work hard to get our bagdes
